“To be truly radical is to make hope possible, rather than despair convincing.” [Raymond Williams] CTA => How might you join us in the Ranks of the Radicals to make hope possible?
Hello, to you listening in Post Falls, Idaho!
Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday and your host, Diane Wyzga.
What does it mean to be radical? Radical. It’s an ominous word, conveying danger, counter-culture, or even extreme behavior. But being radical can also mean speaking truth quietly with conviction, intention, and courage.
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde (another Jersey Girl!) fearlessly spoke truth to power in clear, concise, and compassionate words calling for mercy at an interfaith national prayer service at our National Cathedral. What was so important that the bishop would dare to directly address the president during her sermon, pleading for him to have “mercy on the people in the country who are scared,” notably, immigrants and members of the LGBTQ community. Hope! Hope was so important. Hope was the radical choice.
